Sound of Piano

[jonstatt]

As a keen piano player myself I do know what to listen for. Firstly and most importantly, every real piano sounds different, even two of the same model. Secondly, Recording techniques have improved but recording a live instrument, particularly the piano is still a long way from perfect. Finally I find a piano won’t sound right unless played at the right volume. A piano is not a quiet instrument.

The golds do a VERY good job of piano reproduction in my opinion.
